In two-dimensional statistical physics, correlation functions of the O(N) and Potts models may be written as sums over configurations of non-intersecting loops. We define sums associated to a large class of combinatorial maps (also known as…

We show that the 4-variable generating function of certain orientation related parameters of an ordered oriented matroid is the evaluation at (x + u, y+v) of its Tutte polynomial. This evaluation contains as special cases the counting of…

The paper develops applications of symmetric orbit functions, known from irreducible representations of simple Lie groups, in numerical analysis. It is shown that these functions have remarkable properties which yield to cubature formulas,…

n this article we consider functions meromorphic in the unit disk. We give an elementary proof for a condition that is sufficient for the univalence of such functions which also contains some known results. We include few open problems for…

A class of parametric functions formed by alternating compositions of multivariate polynomials and rectification style monomial maps is studied (the layer-wise exponents are treated as fixed hyperparameters and are not optimized). For this…

We introduce a systematic approach to express generating functions for the enumeration of maps on surfaces of high genus in terms of a single generating function relevant to planar surfaces. Central to this work is the comparison of two…

Let $H:M_m\to M_m$ be a holomorphic function of the algebra $M_m$ of complex $m\times m$ matrices. Suppose that $H$ is orthogonally additive and orthogonally multiplicative on self-adjoint elements. We show that either the range of $H$…

A meromorphic function on a compact complex analytic manifold defines a $\bc\infty$ locally trivial fibration over the complement of a finite set in the projective line $\bc\bp^1$. We describe zeta-functions of local monodromies of this…

We prove a new bound on the number of shared values of distinct meromorphic functions on a compact Riemann surface, explain a mistake in a previous paper on this topic, and give a survey of related questions.

It is known, that every function on the unit sphere in $\bbr^n$, which is invariant under rotations about some coordinate axis, is completely determined by a function of one variable. Similar results, when invariance of a function reduces…

We present generating functions for extensions of multiplicative invariants of wreath symmetric products of orbifolds presented as the quotient by the locally free action of a compact, connected Lie group in terms of orbifold sector…

Let R be a commutative ring and let n,m be two positive integers. Let be the polynomial ring in m x n commuting independent variables R. The symmetric group on n letters acts diagonally on A(n,m). We give generators and relations of the…

In Part 1 we study the spherical functions on compact symmetric pairs of arbitrary rank under a suitable multiplicity freeness assumption and additional conditions on the branching rules. The spherical functions are taking values in the…

A vast class of exponential functions are shown to be deterministic. This class includes functions whose exponents are polynomial-like or "piece-wise" close to polynomials after differentiation. Many of these functions are proved to be…

We investigate the manifold $\cal{M}$ of (real) quadratic forms in n > 1 variables having a multiple eigenvalue. In addition to known facts, we prove that 1) $\cal{M}$ is irreducible, 2) in the case of n = 3, scalar matrices and only them…

Suppose that $F$ is a smooth and connected complex surface (not necessarily compact) containing a smooth rational curve with positive self-intersection. We prove that if there exists a non-constant meromorphic function on $F$, then the…

A \emph{multicontraction} on a Hilbert space $\HH$ is an $n$-tuple of operators $T=(T_1,...,T_n)$ acting on $\HH$, such that $\sum_{i=1}^n T_i T_i^*\le \1_\HH$. We obtain some results related to the characteristic function of a commuting…

On a smooth manifold M, the Kashiwara index formula expresses the weighted Euler characteristic of a constructible function in terms of its characteristic cycle. We generalize this formula to the case when M is a smooth orbifold, answering…
